Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) announced a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Create Groundwork Dallas Green Team 10" under Funding Opportunity Number NPSNOIIMDE100004. This notice was posted on April 15, 2010, with an application closing date of April 26, 2010, and it was archived the next day on April 27, 2010. The NPS anticipated making one award with an estimated total funding amount of $32,500. The award ceiling and floor were both listed as $0, which typically indicates that the specific funding amount is controlled by the underlying agreement and task scope rather than being defined as a competitive range in the announcement itself. No cost sharing or matching funds were required.
The opportunity used a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, meaning the project was intended to involve substantial involvement by the NPS in carrying out the work rather than operating purely as a hands-off grant. The activity category was environmental, and the stated purpose was straightforward: support environmental improvements. More specifically, the notice explains that the task agreement was to be issued against an existing cooperative agreement to support environmental improvements to public spaces in Dallas southern sector as well as at Chickasaw National Recreation Area. In practical terms, this suggests on-the-ground work aimed at improving environmental conditions or amenities in community public spaces and within a national recreation area setting, consistent with NPS partnership-style projects.
Eligibility was effectively limited. Although the eligibility field is listed broadly as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the eligibility information makes clear that the announcement was for informational purposes only and served as a Notice of Intent to award to Groundwork USA. The NPS also notes that the award was competed in accordance with internal NPS procedures, which indicates the competitive process was handled within the agency's existing mechanisms and the intent notice is not an open call for new applicants to compete.
For anyone needing help accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Rhonda Martinez, Contract Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 505-988-6042.
